Bells Cherry Stout

3.8/5

AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20

12 ounce bottle. Pours pitch black with a small tan head with average retention. Aromas of cherry, chocolate, molasses, roasted malts, and caramel. Taste of a LOT of tart cherry on the front with milk chocolate showing more towards the finish. The tart cherry and sweet chocolate notes linger for a bit after the finish. Medium-full body and medium carbonation. A little too forward on the cherry here, but still overall pretty well balanced with the chocolate notes. Overall a very enjoyable and tasty beer, once you get used to the tartness of the cherries.

The tartness threw me off at first, but overall a good stout, but a little too much cherry.
